daily routine

"Go to the side of my bedroom and solve it yourself. I have prepared a hot tub for you. (The best experience in reading novels is here)" Su Xuan stopped teasing Yin Zheng and lay down.

"The high priest..." Yin Zheng pulled the thin quilt over his bare legs.

"I'll take care of it myself." Su Xuan pulled the rope bell to call the servants, and then said: "Aren't you going? Aren't you afraid that people will see your current appearance later?"

"...I see, the high priest is very vicious, you have to be careful." After Yin Zheng said that, he hurried to the side.

Yin Zheng walked into the side room separated by the screen, took off his clothes, and sat in the wooden bucket filled with warm water.

He had a drug attack, and he couldn't restrain himself at this time, and solved it by himself, but closed his eyes, his mind was full of Su Xuan's snow-white and slender body, the more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was going to die, and he could hardly restrain the en, yin between his utterances .

In a haze, he seemed to hear Su Xuan calling for the high priest to come, and after a while, someone pushed open the sliding door, and it seemed to be the high priest.

Yin Zheng was already yuanyui at this time, his head was hot, and he couldn't care less about eavesdropping on what they were saying.

When the high priest Shangguan Konglian came, Su Xuan still looked lazy. This was the first time that Shangguan actually met Su Xuan face to face. , all suddenly disappeared.

He heard people say that Su Xuan is very beautiful, but to what extent he is so beautiful, he thought it was mediocre, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he felt that maybe there would be no one more beautiful than Su Xuan in this world.

Especially wearing loose hair, looking weak and weak, it is really deceptive.

Killing Su Xuan is even easier than killing a baby, but this man's sickly body hides the most dangerous wisdom in the world.

The high priest sat on the cushion, stared at Su Xuan and said, "Su Xuan, we finally meet."

Su Xuan said directly: "I know that your Excellency wants to ask me a lot of questions, but many questions are not for answering. I can only say that if the high priest wants his long-standing wish to be realized, it is best to cooperate with me. Let's work together." win.

The reason why I asked Yin Zheng to prevent you from contacting the people in Ciyun Pavilion is because if you go here, not only will you not be able to seek backup, but you will bring yourself a dead end.Don't tell me that you didn't go to Ximen Street to find people from Ciyun Pavilion. "

"You have a clever plan, and I am willing to bow down. But what does it matter to you whether I get in touch with people in Ciyun Pavilion? Is the crown prince already disliked Ciyun Pavilion and wants to use me to get rid of this thorn in his side? After all, I heard that the prince I have long been dissatisfied with the various religious organizations that have sprung up in the capital." The high priest said.

Su Xuan said: "Even though the prince is really dissatisfied with these cults' bluffing and deceiving, but with the support of various sects, the prince is helpless, not to mention, as we all know, Ciyun Pavilion is not a religious organization, but a place for the rich and powerful to enjoy themselves. You've revealed something by saying that."

"Hmph, why are you pretending to be stupid, don't you know all about it? What is Ciyun Pavilion?" the high priest sneered.

"You are wrong. I only know a little about Ciyun Pavilion. I know that it is a place for rich people to have fun. These places where the rich and powerful gather will inevitably lead to some factional collusion. It is also within my expectation that you seek asylum there. But I still have doubts about whether this Ciyun Pavilion is just a place for pure entertainment.

So I hope the high priest can help me and help me investigate clearly. "

"Why do I have to help you? What are you?" The high priest said contemptuously. Now he has at least a hundred ways to poison Su Xuan, making life worse than death.

"Because," Su Xuan lowered her eyelashes, "the lotus festival is coming. And in this world, now, the only person who can let you go through the lotus festival safely is me."

"You!! How do you know!! You monster!!" The high priest was shocked.

"Cooperate with me? You have no choice." Su Xuan stretched out her finger.

"What do you want me to do?" The high priest gritted his teeth, and finally gave in.

"I know you must have obtained the permission to enter Ciyun Pavilion, can you take me to see it tonight?" Su Xuan made a strange request.

The high priest looked at him in disbelief: "What do you mean? Since you want to investigate the Ciyun Pavilion, it's fine to send Yin Zheng to go. How do you go? Are you going to enjoy it? I'm afraid you have to let that The little officials over there are playing with you, so let me just ask, can you take care of your own toilet?"

Su Xuan didn't take such harsh words seriously, and instead said: "I really can't take care of myself, my lower body is paralyzed, I can't move at all, my internal organs are even weaker than ordinary people, if there is no one to serve me, I can't live Go on, but this does not prevent me from seeing the so-called luxury.

So whether I can have fun is my business, and whether you take me there is your business. "

"I really can't understand your mentality. Well, I'll treat it as a half-dead person who wants to stimulate his wish. Let me explain in advance that you will only hate your broken body even more after you have seen luxury and money." The high priest Showing a mocking look.

After the high priest left, Yin Zheng, who jumped out of the bathtub, didn't care to put on his clothes, and ran out with a blanket around him, shouting: "God stick! Do you know where Ciyun Pavilion is? It is said that there are dignitaries A place for leisure and pleasure, just spending one night’s money is enough to make you bankrupt! And it’s not a good place! It’s a romantic place! I don’t think you should go there! It’s indecent!”

"You mean, I won't be able to go where I want to go in my whole life? I'm really a poor wretch, alas." Su Xuan said aggrievedly.

"Don't pretend to be pitiful again! You..." Yin Zheng looked at his lifeless legs under the blanket, sighed and said, "Okay, if you want to see it, I will take you to see it, but you Why do you have to bring someone like the high priest there?"

"Ciyun Pavilion is not something you can enter if you want, it requires special permission, that is to say, people who don't have a certain amount of weight cannot enter." Su Xuan said.

"Heavy weight? Haha, are only those high-ranking officials and dignitaries called weighty? Then can I eat a little fatter?" Yin Zheng asked.

"You don't need much weight, and adding me will be very important." Su Xuan said.

"What do you mean?" Yin Zheng smiled slyly when he saw Su Xuan.

"The wheelchair is too heavy, so please take it for me at night." Su Xuan said.

Although Su Xuan said so, in fact, when Yin Zheng came to pick him up at night, Su Xuan actually stood up.

This startled Yin Zheng, but after a closer look, he realized that Su Xuan was wearing crutches under her armpits, and wooden limbs for the paralyzed to assist in standing on her legs. The joint brackets were made of belts and wooden frames. , immobilized his limp legs so that he could barely stand.

This was the first time Yin Zheng saw Su Xuan stand up, and he realized that Su Xuan stood up like a tree, but it was a pity that he could only stand like that, and he had to rely on the strength of his arms to move his body. He moved his upper body, and before taking two steps in the bedroom, he leaned on Yin Zheng and said that he was tired.

Yin Zheng had no choice but to pick him up and walk out, because the carriage was ready and the high priest was already waiting in the carriage.

Su Xuan's carriage was specially designed for him by the prince's craftsman. The carriage was covered with thick blankets and mattresses, and cushions were wrapped everywhere to reduce vibration. The whole carriage was like a bed. Su Xuan went on After getting out of the car, they leaned there in a half-lying position, and the two of them sat facing each other, silent to each other.

After Yin Zheng came up, the compartment suddenly seemed a little crowded, but he still tried his best to make room for Su Xuan.

For the evening activities, Su Xuan specially wore a rather gorgeous moon-white cotton gown with expensive mink velvet piping, which looked like a nobleman, while Yin Zheng's clothes were still decorated with servants, but He doesn't care about clothes.

The high priest is dressed in black.

The carriage quickly started to move, bumping forward on the bluestone road.

Although few people dare to walk on the streets at night, this does not prevent the nobles from having fun, because there are several streets dedicated to the nobles, and there are special guards in charge of security. Even sectarian believers will not mess around Against the officials.

Due to the slow speed of the carriage, which made people drowsy, the high priest finally couldn't help breaking the silence: "Su Xuan, you are a smart person. I don't believe that you went to Yunhai Pavilion just to enjoy the so-called drunkenness. Are you here? For what purpose? Something serious must have happened that forced you to go there yourself, and you don’t trust anyone to do the investigation for you.”

"I just have a little doubt - I checked the records about Yunhai Pavilion, and even used the prince's intelligence network, and the result made me a little bit suspicious. And it's just this seemingly insignificant little doubt, It makes my heart move." Su Xuan said.

"What kind of doubt?" Both Yin Zheng and the high priest couldn't help being curious.

"Yunhai Pavilion, this place of entertainment for nobles, implements a membership system. You must have a certain status to be allowed to enter. The local rich and nouveau riche do not have this qualification, so this kind of place is the easiest to form cliques for personal gain. The prince has indeed suspected this place. , but the sixth prince also infiltrated it at that time, he didn't dare to investigate rashly, so he postponed the plan to deal with Yunhai Pavilion until recently.

So I looked through some of the materials he got, and found that many of these so-called members disappeared in the end. "

"Have you been killed? It's strange. If an important person is killed, it should be a major case that would shock the government and the public. Why didn't I get any news about this when I was in the palace?" Yin Zheng said.

"It's not being killed, but another kind of disappearance. These people either have sufficient evidence to show that their family moved to other places, or they left the world for various legal reasons. In short, there are no criminal clues left." Su Xuan said "To add, there are many empty and abandoned mansions in the capital. Yin Zheng, you also took me to one of them. I can tell you that after comparison, I found that the owners of those abandoned mansions were all members of Yunhai Pavilion. And these The mansions vacated by people all left traces of being forced to relocate and be abandoned.

Before these members disappeared, they all had records of transferring a large amount of their assets to the money bank secretly established by Yunhai Pavilion. "

"Could it be an ingenious serial case of murder for money? Su Xuan, you have aroused my interest!" Yin Zheng said a little excitedly.

"But this is just a public matter. What attracts you is not just the big case that makes the police excited?" The high priest frowned.

Su Xuan then took out an invitation card from her bosom. This invitation card was made by Yunhai Pavilion. It was once issued to the sixth prince, and it was found when the residence of the sixth prince was copied.

"There is a scent of spices specially made by Yunhai Pavilion on it." Su Xuan said.

The high priest took the invitation, smelled it and said, "Ordinary spices, not poisonous. What's wrong?"

"It's not poisonous, but it's not an ordinary spice. In this smell, there is a smell of sea water. This is inland, how can there be sea?" Su Xuan said.

"Is your nose a dog's? Why don't I smell any sea water?" The high priest sneered, "Are you imagining?"

"To be exact, it's the stench of sea water." Su Xuan said to herself.

"You are really stunned." The high priest folded his arms.

"I've only smelled this smell in a dirty place." Su Xuan's voice became deeper and deeper.
